Unicorn and Thing-O-Matic

I am considering purchasing a Thing-O-Matic.  Part of my calculation about how useful it will be revolves around what it would take to use the Unicorn with it.  Specifically whether the extruder controller that comes with the Thing-O-Matic can be used to control it, or whether I would have to obtain an additional controller.

Hey Lawrence,

We're sorry this went unanswered for so long.  It's a little late to answer this one but I just wanted to let you know that we have a plan for a new lower-cost pen plotter for the Replicator; it'll also be simpler to install.
